Welcome to The Arcade of Hypermodernity

We invite you to explore the various installations and works at the intersection of art, technology, and imagination - in our homage to the concept of arcades and amusement centers throughout the ages with reflections on our hypermodern existence. In the links below you can access the Curator's Essay, Artist Statements & Bios, and an Exhibition Checklist. 

​

HOW TO PLAY IN THE ARCADE

 

Some of the works are to look at, while others invite you to interact with them. We encourage exploration - something children do more readily than adults. Try interacting with pieces in different ways. See what happens if you press a button twice. What happens if you pick up an object and aim it? If you need some help, some installations include prompts on the wall next to each work for clues how to proceed. Some are simple, others may be a bit more involved. What's the rush? Slow down from your hypermodern life, take your time in the arcade, allow yourself to play, and make discoveries. 

 

But please: DO ask a gallery attendant for assistance with certain installations. As with all forms of technology, things can go awry by pressing the wrong button or a ghost in the machine. Seek help when needed to navigate and enjoy the full effect of the work.
